It still feels like yesterday when my good buddy sprung me from the hospital, broken ribs, broken collarbone but had 2 tickets to this show on Mothers
...
Day. We hitched up from Concord. Warm day but on and off rain. Peaceful scene sitting out front waiting on the doors. Wasn't my smartest move but we did what any rabid head would do, got right up front and paid the price but hell, the show was so hot that I guess I didn't notice the pain. As another reviewer mentioned, Garcia was on fire, playing like a mad man and the rest of the band caught on. I saw that move when Garcia reached down and cranked it up during the Fire and hit that note sequence that stood my hairs on end. I thoroughly enjoyed going back through this entire show tonight, 37 years later, from start to finish, a beauty of a recording job. I remember seeing that sea of mic stands thinking, wow! I had been off the bus for a couple of years and a lot had changed and I was really back in full force after this night. Very mellow scene outside, frantic inside. One of my all time favorites.

Excellent show. Hot and sultry with lots of "X" Factor energy. Nice AUD too but, I think the Friend capture is the best of the four AUDs available.
...
Also agree with Rabbit and Chenner that this is another show that should be lauded in a year (with 1981) that is very under-appreciated. But the ending isn't quite as smoking as it could have been to make a stellar five star rating. I want to give it five, but it's more like a five with a "take a half step back" for the ending... 4 1/2 stars.
And I would have sworn on a stack of Bibles this tape was running fast from the manic pace right off the bat with Alabama. But the SBD sounds fast as well as the other AUDs? So this manic pace must be the actual tempo. Jez, that's nuts!?

Well played show from start to finish, Good aud. recording and clear as a bell.
Enjoyed first set it was smooth as silk and just flowed very freely.
Black ... Peter is a tru gem in this show.
Kick back and enjoy our youth in 1980 in the northeast.

Why people don't hold 1980 (and 1981 for that mattter) in higher regard is beyond me. I suppose an appreciation for audience tapes may be a prerequisite
...
for maximum enjoyment of the shows during this fantastic year, but if you are in that camp, this archive holds an embarrassment of riches. Hot performances night after night, the only caveat being somewhat repetitive set lists. But, man oh man, did the Dead have their sh#t in a pile in 1980.

This was a really nice Mother's Day show. the 1st set is very nicely played with a truly great Music Never Stopped. Set 2 just took off. The Scarlet/Fire
...
is excellent. The transition between Stranger and Terrapin is flawless and unique... It's the only time I have heard where they don't end Stranger with the 3-beat rhythm, rather they just ease effortlessly into Terrapin , and then a classic Playing ijn the band. After drums is fairly standard, but well played. The sound is great for an audience show, and you get a real feel for what the show actually sounded like.

This was one of the better shows I saw, and among the best of this tour....both sets were good. It's one I'll always remember, glad to find it here- the
...
first thing I downloaded. Big railroad blues was a treat. Great Music never stopped, and for set two, Garcia rarely turned up the way he does at the end of "Fire on the Mountain" and lets the feedback rip. Some feel this version of "going down the road feeling bad" was the best of the Brent era, can't say I disagree. The last part of set 2 is a bit of a let down compared to the rest of the show...well played, just nothing special song wise. Pretty good audience recording which gives a bit of an improvement over my tape. The previous night (Hartford) was also top notch. Thanks to the taper and all involved in making these recordings available.
